What's worse is the big holes they cut getting ready to pave the potholes.
Then leave them overnight for some unsuspecting biker to plow into.
Those things hurt.

Already started by me. Was coming home from work all excited about getting out for a ride in 55 degree weather on Monday when the best road to ride on was covered with sand. I don't mean a little sand, I mean absolutely covered from where the repaired the cracks with tar and spread the sand. I was so depressed I didn't even try to go ride anywhere else, cleaned the air filter, changed the spark plugs and went back over all the spots I missed from waxing her Sunday. It's supposed to rain all day today so hopefully they will be clean tomorrow.

How did your choice of footwear make a difference with the pot hole?
